Thanks for the point inthe right derection, about the 360 I wanted to put it in but my uncle has more 318 blocks and spare parts for and all his 360s are # matching w/ the heads, My plans for the 318 is the 480 Purple cam I would like to get a set of 360 heads for it but i think i have to use a pair of worked over 318 heads to start with, and hers some pics I bought it for a 100 so how bad of a deal did i get and eveythings there except the driver side mirror and i think my dad has one that i can use, the only bad thing is its been sitting for about 16 17 years but been moved a couple of time, that nest there wasnt there untill the guy i bought it from moved a truck that it was next to it was for the daughter but it never got into the interriror or the trunk, there never was battery in so i dont think that the rat chewed in the wiring, that i could tell, also other than the rust on the paint theres not any rust

Here is what I see........ Big time sleeper...... I would love to have a four door that would blow the doors off the ricers...... My brother in law had 68-69 Ford LTD with 429 Super Cobra Jet in it..... And it embarrased lots of Mustang GT's... Good luck....:cheers:
